[QUOTE="John, post: 1134591, member: 175005"] I don't use a polo pipe any more but it was good on my system when used with a Zinwell The front of your polo pipe becomes what was the front of your previous lnbf, your off-set scalar ring goes over the front of the barrel as before and tweaked as normal. I did this for setting the barrel & Zinwell up on mine : I lined the inner 'side steps' of the barrel so that they are vertical with the focal point set as before with the previous lnbf and tweaked if needed. Clamp the barrel and leave it fixed solid in this position after all tweaking has been done. To establish correct polorisation of firstly say a [B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]RHC signal[/COLOR][/B] from 40.5West, select a suitable strong enough signal frequency, select the [B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]'V / 13volt'[/COLOR][/B] setting on your receiver , rotate your Zinwell within the fixed polo pipe until maximum performance is achieved and make markings on the barrel/lnbf joint point with a 'RHC' marking. Then select a [B][COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]LHC signal[/COLOR][/B] from 40.5West , select [B][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]'H / 17volt'[/COLOR][/B] setting on your receiver, rotate your Zinwell 90 deg in the opposite direction and tweak for best performance and again make a 'LHC' marking on your barrel/lnbf joint position. Additional fine tuning of focal point / scalar ring position / how far to insert the lnbf into the polo pipe etc to be done finally. ** For Linear signals - use another satellite , say 55West, and repeat the process as before, marking the 'H' position on the barrel and the same for the 'V' position.
